Default T206 Snodgrass variation

I have a card that is a bit unusuall to say the least. It is a T206 Snodgrass with the name in red ink. Does anyone know anything about this type of variation. From what I have heard there are many variations of T206's. This card checks out in comparison and uniformity to other T206's I have. There is no eveidence of alteration under a loupe or blacklight. Just looking for some feedback about the card and a value if possible.

thanks for the reply. I guess the ink must be more common than I thought.

Default Red ink?

I am going to guess the caption is in light brown ink (faded a bit) and it's not really red. If it were a bright red, and not altered, then I think you would have something special. Most folks are looking for the "S" to be almost gone, which is the well known (s)nodgrass variation.

I appreciate all the feedback about the card. I wish it was missing the S but as we all know they are all supposedly altered cards even those in holders. Is is common for the names to be in brown ink and fade??? All 46 of my other T206's are as black as can be even the crappiest of them. Kind like my Revelle with the OM back. It looked dark brown but under a loupe you could see it was just faded out. My luck though.

I can assure you there are legit NODGRASS cards. The card was known about in the early 70s, maybe even before that.
I agree with the other members about your card.
